QM for SIG

Benefits

for the
Evaluating Institution

Innovation at Low Cost - The use of Questionnaire Manager for SIG (QM for SIG) significantly reduces the cost of managing and approving the responses from one or more service providers. It also reduces software integration costs for in-house risk management applications and databases by importing well-formed XML conforming to a published schema.

Productivity - The QM for SIG submission review feature (Compare) allows the SIG evaluator to create “model” response sets and then automate the comparison of received SIG responses, flagging exceptions for rapid assessor reviews. Exception reports can then be sent back to the submitter for clarification or correction. This can significantly speed up the approval compliance review process.

Integration - QM for SIG output can be easily imported into existing operational risk management and other enterprise risk management systems. QM for SIG provides financial institutions the capability to receive a PDF version of the SIG for human review as well as an XML version.

for the
Service Provider

Innovation at Low Cost - The use of QM for SIG significantly reduces the cost of responding to one or more requests from customers. The QM for SIG questionnaire can be completed by multiple concurrent users at the same time and sent to each evaluating institution as requested.

Productivity - The use of QM for SIG reduces the time to complete the SIG questionnaire as the system is centralized and multi-user. It safely allows multiple simultaneous responders to a single SIG instance.

Workflow - QM for SIG provides the service provider with workflow capabilities to define users, roles and responsibilities for answering questions and approving responses.

Standardization - QM for SIG provides a cost-effective standalone data entry facility for service providers that can be used with multiple evaluating institutions.

Version Control - QM for SIG supports version control when preparing, approving, submitting, and tracking SIG responses to each customer for every service offering.

Evaluating Institution and Service Provider

Usability - QM for SIG provides an easy to use web interface built upon a multi-user relational database.

Access Security - QM for SIG uses a role-based permission system. Administrators can create users and roles such that only appropriate users may view, edit, approve, or compare responses. New roles can be created with view, edit and approve capabilities at the global or page level. Domains can also be defined (Network Edition) to provide an additional level of security and provides support for multiple functions, divisions or institutions in a single QM for SIG system.

Completeness - QM for SIG allows the service provider to easily attach completed supporting documents and notes to specific questions and sections that are sent to the evaluating institution as part of the completed SIG.

Data Security - QM for SIG provides the option of encrypting submissions to protect sensitive data during transmission between the service provider and the evaluating institution.

Data integrity - Data integrity in QM for SIG is guaranteed through the use of a validated XML schema.

SIG Upgrade Support - QM for SIG is committed to support all updates and enhancements to the SIG. This gives users a migration path preserving all work already completed where only the new elements of the SIG need to be addressed for a service provider to be compliant with the enhancements to the SIG.
